With Jaws and Hammers of Steel Into a steel-lined pit, like a huge inverted bell with upright clapper, crash six tons ol limestone and shale from a dump car. The long process of crushing and grinding necessary in cement making begins. Slowly, steadily, the great clapper of the gyratory crusher travels a circular path crunches the huge chunks of stone to inch-and-a-half fragments. The fragments pour out below on their way to the grinding mills. In the first mill, a hundred hinged hammers poynd and crush the rock to particles the size of sand. Next, the materials go to the tube mill —a cylinder as big as a locomotive boiler, half filled with steel balls. As it revolves, it lifts the charge of steel and rock and tumbles it down again and again. An hour of this yields a powder finer than flour. All this is only part of tho grinding required. The powder is burned to glass-hard clinker—and then the grinding process starts all over again. A jaw crusher cracks the clinker; balls hammer it to the fineness of sand. And again, for an hour, the mass tumbles about in another tube mill, grinding and rubbing together clinker, steel balls and gypsum. Then you have cement To meet standard specifications, 78 per cent of the finished cement must pass through a sieve having forty thousand holes per square inch, which is finer than the finest silk. To obtain a ton of finished cement a cement plant grinds to this fineness two tons of raw materials, including coal, and a ton of glass-hard clinker — three torn altogether to make one ton of Portland cement Crushing,grinding and pulverizing are among the more than eighty operations in cement making.
